Silvertip: A Premier Mountain Community in Canmore

Welcome to Silvertip

Silvertip is one of Canmore’s most stunning and sought-after communities, offering an unparalleled mountain living experience. Situated high above the valley on Canmore’s sunny side, Silvertip enjoys incredible natural light year-round, particularly in winter. The area is a true sanctuary, combining luxury homes, world-class golf, and stunning natural surroundings while maintaining easy access to downtown Canmore and major highways.

For those looking for the perfect blend of nature, privacy, and community, Silvertip delivers breathtaking views, a high-end real estate market, and an outdoor lifestyle that’s second to none. While living higher up in the valley gives you incredible scenery, it does mean a bit of a trek if you don’t want to drive. Luckily, e-biking is a great option in the summer, perfect for getting outside, enjoying nature, and getting a little assist on the way back up the hill.

Things to Do in Silvertip

Silvertip is designed for those who love to live, play, and explore. Whether you're a nature lover, a golfer, or someone who enjoys fine dining and relaxation, there's something for everyone.

Silvertip Resort & Golf Course – This isn’t just any golf course, it’s a globally celebrated, championship-level course. The 18-hole, par-72 course was designed by award-winning architect Les Furber, featuring over 600 feet of elevation change and jaw-dropping mountain scenery at every turn. The Rustica Steakhouse and Stoney’s Bar provide excellent dining options with incredible views.
